Athena were fortunate to be asked to be the first club to take part in Volleyball England's new net drop challenge.

Based on a fun promotional competition used in the European Champions League, the aim of the challenge is to serve, clip the top of the net with the ball and have the ball. After a quick qualifying serve, where Emma was the only to be successful, a final took place with club captain playing against Emma with 5 attempts each.

Emma showed she is a whizz at this, scoring a further 2 more hits to Sarah's one to win 2-1.
